Day 23 post op

I went to my second post op appointment with Dr. Smith.  He said my nose looks better than he'd expected!  He used a swab to swab off the areas that were still a bit crusty or scabby.  He said to keep doing exactly what I've been doing and, then, when my entire nose is new, pink skin, to discontinue the Desitin and just keep my nose well-lotioned.  He reiterated that whenever I'm in the sun, to wear a hat and keep the sun off my nose.  I asked if a white covering of zinc oxide (like the surfers used to use years ago) would do the trick.  He said that would be perfect.  He wants to see me again is six weeks or so.


Somehow, I neglected to take pictures today.

I again missed taking pictures. But here's a picture of my setup for washing my nose.
